Even before Moses Asch started the legendary Folkways label, he recorded many classic blues and folk performers, many of whom would be unknown otherwise. The 21 tracks on THE ORIGINAL FOLKWAYS RECORDINGS are vintage early recordings by three of Asch's best-known folk discoveries. Mixing the three often radically different singer/songwriters brings out their similarities as well as their differences.
Guthrie's rowdy good humor, especially notable on duets with Cisco Houston like "Who's Gonna Shoe Your Pretty Feet," meshes well with Seeger's passionate traditionalism and Leadbelly's more personal, somewhat idiosyncratic style. Josh White and Sonny Terry also appear, as Terry shines in a trio with Houston and Guthrie on a rousing "Jack Hammer Blues." Obviously, given the somewhat primitive early recording conditions, these songs are not particularly hi-fi, but they're clear and have surprising depth. This is a fine introduction to all three performers.

Original Folkways Recordings album
 $7.59    
This is the quintessential "Outlaw country" album. Waylon Jennings spent the early '70s working his way up to this rough-and-tumble masterpiece, arguably the finest album of his prolific career. Jennings was so taken with the songwriting of Nashville rowdy Billy Joe Shaver that he decided to record this all-Shaver album (with the exception of the Fritts/Seals-penned "You Asked Me To"), which helped put Shaver on the map as the poet laureate of the Outlaw set.
Jennings eschewed the lush countrypolitan sound in favor of a raw, electrified approach that owed more to the Rolling Stones than to Billy Sherrill. With a small band and simple arrangements, he introduced contemporary rock-oriented beats into his hard-hitting country sound, adding some funky grit ...

$7.59
Recorded in New York, New York on April 26 & May 3, 1940. Includes liner notes by Dave Marsh & Woody Guthrie.
American folk music has produced few artists as gifted and complex as Woody Guthrie. Guthrie's talents as a singer, harmonica player, and guitar player were merely ordinary, but as a songwriter, storyteller, and provocateur Guthrie had few equals. Guthrie's genius lay in his gift for seamlessly integrating his leftist political principles into his tales of common ...
